How is instinct inborn
Instinct is built into us, it is a fixed action pattern. Certain instincts have been built into us through evolution.
So intuitiveness has to do with using incrementally collected "knowledge" of the world to make ever increasing sense of patterns - so as to "recognize" more meaning in them
Your own collected knowledge and experience combined with instinct. Yes.
Women's intuition
Maternal instinct plus intuition.
In everyday use I think intuition is using your five senses combined with your experience to understand what you are are perceiving. The speed of recognition is unconcious so seems to come from nowhere. To recognise a correct pattern and an incorrect one.
I think N types also use their five senses and experience to build their intuitions. N types are abstract in nature so build models in their head. Everybody does this of course but N have a preference for this. So the models they have built are also a part of their accumulated base. That is why they tend to move laterally in their thinking.
Concrete intuition and abstract intuition so to speak.
